Absolutely anything goes...

Tut, I thought it was that Wigget thing, you know at the bottom of beer cans..........:confused:
I think the internet is right up there. It's possibly because I am such a technology dunce but I find it amazing what you can find out about on the net. Even really obscure things you think no one could possibly have put on the net, just type it into Google and there you go, a host of info on whatever you like. Really does seem to me like the world is only a few mouse clicks away sometimes :)
The toaster!!! hmmm.... toast....
best mobile phone
worst mobile phone
personally i hate phoens, and to have one following me round all day is even worse, but they are damned handy if nee to get incontact with people

alcohol of course
1/ its an aphrodisiac
2/ It paints a mask on any 10 pint mingers you pull so you can have a good shag with a realy good looking bird.
3/ Point 2 also works in the reverse enableing you to kop off with a right fit bird who's realy low on the pint scale.
4/ It provides jobs for thousands of people in the kebab trade
5/ it numbs pain
6/ You can clean things with it
7/ you can run it in your car
8/ It helps you sleep
9/ creates massive social gatherings in pub's and clubs throught the world
10/ you can make it yourself
11/ even jesus was partial to a glass of cheap plonk.
12/ hhhmmm point 11 reminds me that even vicars make there congragation have a swig with some bread.

Believe it or not, the company I work for did all the research and development on those! (Before I joined though.)
I think the greatest invention is . . . . fire. Or maybe lingerie.

I've just changed my mind, Im with supraman on this one
My greatest inventions:
1) Roundabouts - fantastic idea!
2) Badgers - absolutely no reason for their existance at all. Which makes em great!
3) Turbochargers - compressed air, more power, whooshing noises, brilliant!
4) The Discovery Channel - war and car documentarys all day every day, plus some Aussie lunatic prodding big snakes with a stick, Superb!
5) Cheesy Peas - think cheese! think peas! think cheesy peas! Cheesy Peas, please!

My god.... the PRINTING PRESS !! No single invention has caused such a change in the way the human race has lived it's life...
Dont believe anyones had this yet, and although it still needs a lot of refinement and tweaking its not bad for a first attempt, i rekon the best invention ever has to be the woman!
With out this invention you wouldnt have lingerie or boobs! (to mention but a few!):D :D

Sorry, I cannot discuss this.

I will say one thing, everybody on this board already owns a potential time machine unfortunately Norris Designs don't sell flux capacitors yet.

Is physics an invention though? It's just a set of rules . . . lightbulbs and electromagnets are inventions, physics is a discovery isn't it?
